The assumption for all non-mdev devices ends up very misleading.
For example: The parent device of an mdev needs to be bound to a vfio
device driver. Without it the device ends up without the capability to
create mdevs.
If this driver binding is not persisted (e.g. with setting up driverctl)
but instead the device is just manually being rebound to a vfio device
driver than after reboot neither the mdev capability on the parent
device nor the mdev device as a child device will be existing.
A user calling nodedev-info before the reboot gets
on the parent device
         Persistent:     yes
         Autostart:      yes
and on the mdev device
         Persistent:     yes
         Autostart:      yes
After a reboot he ends up with with nodedev-info
on the parent device
         Persistent:     yes
         Autostart:      yes
and the mdev device does not exist.

Before I get to the rest of your suggestion, I'd like to know more
about this. If the mdev device is persistent (i.e. "defined" in
mdevctl terminology), then it should still exist after a reboot, even
if it's not started. If it doesn't, then it's a bug. An mdev can be
defined even if its parent device is not present.

Does this device show up if you run 'mdevctl list --defined'?
Does it show up if you run `virsh nodedev-list --cap mdev --all`?

I suggest to use three states like yes, no, unknown
or not showing Persistent and Autostart on devices that libvirt does not
manage/know about their persistence and autostart configuration.

Well, I suppose that we have the error value (-1) that could be used
for this case, but it doesn't exactly seem like an error. Adding a
separate tri-state return value would make this API inconsistent with
all of the other IsActive()/IsPersistent() APIs in libvirt, so I don't
think that's a very good idea.

Just noticed something while playing around with this.
The default "yes" seems to be not really a good choice even for mdevs.
See below:
